Ukraine to Protect Its F-16 Fighter Fleet by Basing Planes ‘in Other Countries’ - Lemmy

While I think that’s dope it does feel like it gives Russia valid cause to strike them in host countries and kind of feels like a deliberate provocation to do so?
Russia already stated that they will do precisely that, so this moves us one step closer to a nuclear holocaust. Hope it was worth it.
Russia said they would nuke the west 10 times already, they have rattled the saber too much and nobody believes the threat.
Where, please provide an ofgicial statement from Russia saying that.

These are reminders that Russia is a nuclear superpower, and that continued escalation can lead to a direct war between west and Russia which will almost certainly be nuclear.
Almost like saying that Russia would “nuke” the west…
almost like you’re projecting
Please explain, as that statement does not seem to make much sense to me.
You’re projecting your own interpretation onto a statement that doesn’t say what you claim it says. Hope that clears things up for you.

That is not what projection means though?

“Projection is a type of defense mechanism or means of coping. People may use defense mechanisms and unconscious mental strategies to cope with stressful or anxiety-provoking thoughts and experiences. When someone unconsciously attributes their thoughts, feelings, or behaviors to another person, they are projecting.”
